the wealthy see charity and taxes two sides of the same coin. taxes go up, charity must go down. press secretary for george bush summed it up in a recent tweet saying, quote, i and many others will likely donate less in 2013. but a new study from the nonpartisan tech center says charitable giving may actually increase this year by $3.3 billion. tax hikes are actually the main reason why. here's how it works. taxpayers deduct their charity at their marginal tax rate. last year the wealthy could deduct 35 cents for every dollar they gave. the current rate is 39.6%. so they can deduct 39.6 cents for every dollar they give. their cost of giving has, in other words, fallen by 7% for those making $400,000 or more per year. the same is true if you're giving away stock or real estate that's appreciated in value. the higher capital gains rate making giving more economically attractive. the cliff deal does limit certain deductions. but the benefits of these higher tax rates more than makes up that limit on deductions. so net-net, the wealthy get a bigger tax cut this year for giving. it's

there is no tax solution to this. it's a spending solution. and if this president doesn't want to go there, we're going to have to force it and we're going to have to force it over the debt ceiling. >> this is a guy walking into a crowded room and saying, "i have a bomb strapped to my chest, and if you don't give me what i want, i'm going to blow up everybody, including myself." and is that a credible threat? well, there're some pretty crazy people there. and it might be that they're willing to do it. but by the same token, obama cannot get into this because then you have government in the hands of -- never mind the constitution, the government is run by whoever is most willing to wreak havoc with our whole system of -- with the nation. we cannot allow ourselves to be blackmailed into spending cuts, partly because blackmail should not be part of how the u.s. operates, and partly because spending cuts would be disastrous right now. so obama's right to say he doesn't negotiate. i'd like to know exactly what he will do if it turns out that there

i didn't say i wouldn't have any conversations about extending the tax cuts. what i said was we wouldn't extend bush tax cuts for the wealthy and we didn't. you could argue during the campaign i set the criteria for wealthy at 250, and we ended up being at 400. but the fact of the matter is, millionaires, billionaires, are paying significa ining signific taxes just like i said. from the start my concern was making sure that we had a tax code that was fair and that protected the middle class. and my biggest priority was making sure that middle class taxes did not go up. the difference between this year and 2011 is the fact that we've already made $1.2 trillion in cuts. at the time i indicated that there were cuts that we could sensibly make that would not damage our economy, would not impede growth, i said at the time i think we should pair it up with revenue in order to have an overall balanced package. but my own budget reflected cuts in discretionary spending. my own budget reflected the cuts that needed to be made. and we've made those cuts. now, the challe
